1) Bad Habit is… Read Full Bio ↴There are multiple artists with the name Bad Habit.
1) Bad Habit is a Swedish hard rock band founded in 1986. Also see Bad Habit Sweden.
2) Like many great punk records, this one’s almost over before it starts. While this isn’t quite great, it does cover all the hardcore bases: fast, loud, aggressive. The four song demo clocks in at just 5:39, but it lets up very little over that time. Bad Habit draws a lot from Minor Threat with just a slightly looser approach a la early Black Flag. They throw in a bit more melody on "Cancer" and it sows the seeds of being more than just another young punk band playing fast and angry. Remembering that this is a demo, a preview of the future so to speak, and that they’ve only been together about six months, it’s an exciting listen. The production is acceptable, but not exceptional and the performance is passionate and honest. Lyrically, they cover the typical topics of frustration, alienation and family breakdown and while the lyrics aren’t poetry (c’mon, it’s hardcore not folk music), they’re heartfelt. To keep things from getting too serious (something so many hardcore bands forget to do), they also throw in "Israeli Girl," an ode to the girl of their dreams, Natalie Portman. I wonder if she’s heard it..." just to make things clear though...natalie portman is all me (joe)

Bad Habit Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴
Don't Want You - Bad Habits
Verse 1
I don't want you to come back
I don't want you to stay
I don't need your apologies
I don't need your mistakes
Chorus
Cause everything you do just drives me crazy
And everything you say just makes me wanna scream
I don't want you in my life, I don't want you in my dreams
Verse 2
I don't want you to call me
I don't want you to write
I don't want you to visit
I don't want you in my life
The song "I Don't Want You" by Bad Habits is a song about moving on from someone who has hurt you. The singer is clearly stating that they do not want the other person back nor do they want to stay in contact with them in any way. The chorus reveals the depth of the hurt, showing that the other person's actions and words are driving the singer crazy and making them want to scream.
The frustration and anger in the song is palpable, but at the same time, there's a sense of determination and resilience shining through. The singer is making it abundantly clear that they've had enough and that they're ready to move on from this toxic relationship. This theme of empowerment and self-assertion is a common feature in Bad Habits' music, and it's clear that the band wants to inspire their listeners to stand up for themselves and take control of their lives.
